"An Affair to Remember" is always associated with the words 'cheesy,' 'unreal,' and the ubiquitous statement, 'That movie's a chick flick!' However, I think it's a great movie. People always think of the end, which some pass off as sappy. I, on the other hand, think it's beautiful. The looks Cary Grant gets on his face say more than words ever could. And people: there's a great movie before the end! It's a movie filled with romance, and believe it or not, tons of comedy! After all, it's a Leo McCarey movie...the man behind "Duck Soup" and "The Awful Truth."
In my opinion, this is one of Cary Grant's greatest performances. He's his usual debonair self, but in this, his heart gets broken. His acting is superb! And Deborah Kerr is radiant, as always. This is a movie that should be appreciated by everyone (yes, including men!) Sure, maybe it's not for everyone. But see it before you make harsh judgments against it. :)
